We’re fast becoming big believers in the pint-sized power of form-factor computing. About a year ago, Asus wowed us with their miniature Eee notebook, which was a good first attempt to mesh mobility, flexibility and affordability. The combination of Linux-based OS (or XP on later models), solid state drives, range of Easter-pastel flavours, and cute factor have made the Eee a viable option for many users. That said, I’d still pay thrice as much to get more of everything, specifically a larger screen. But that’s neither here nor there as today we’re featuring the newest evolution in the Asus Eee family, specifically the Eee keyboard concept.
By the name alone, you might (incorrectly) assume that Asus is releasing a simple keyboard peripheral to go with their already popular Eee line of netbooks. In this case, the Eee keyboard is merely the shell housing one of the smallest pc’s we’ve seen to date. The backend of the keyboard contains all the necessary ports, from HDMI, USB, SSD and audio jacks. From the top down, the full-sized QWERTY keyboard also includes a full colour, touch screen. Great for people on the go, or even the HTPC crowd. We suspect the specs are pretty comparable to the entire Eee line, but details are sparse.
